Abstract:

Forgiveness is a soulful creative act that leave people in a position to move forward into the future together. With regard to the human emotion of forgiveness, Hannah Arendt (1958) has phrased in her book, The Human Condition: “Without being forgiven we would remain the victims of its consequences forever” and it is ‘forgiving’ that serves to undo the deeds of the past, whose “sins” hang like Damocles’ sword over every new generation.
